Good to know

Add visible page numbers to PDF content. Number every page or choose a physical page range; processing happens locally in your browser.

Visible numbering is separate from physical page position: when you skip a title page, physical page 2 can show 1. “Page X of Y” uses the selected-page count as its total.

Typical use cases

Number pages in a report

Add consecutive numbers at the bottom of each page to make printed or shared reports easier to reference.

Skip the title page and start at 1

Leave the first physical PDF page unnumbered and begin visible numbering at 1 on the next page.

Tips for better results

Review physical page ranges carefully

The range refers to actual pages in the source PDF. A selection such as 2–4 is numbered consecutively within that selection.

Review the preview and signature notice

Check placement and readability in the preview. Creating a modified PDF invalidates existing digital signatures.
